A seizure is an abnormal burst of electrical activity in the brain. When this happens, pets may fall on their sides, paddle their limbs, vocalize, urinate or defecate unexpectedly.
In this video, we see two different dogs having a seizure and experiencing most of the symptoms mentioned above.
If your pet is suffering from a seizure, we encourage you to call your primary veterinarian or emergency animal hospital.

What causes this I have a little terrier
There are many causes of seizures. I separate them into three main categories: 1. Causes outside the brain like toxins, low blood sugar and liver problems 2. Causes inside the brain like meningitis, brain tumors and strokes and 3. Idiopathic epilepsy.
It is important to find out which one is the cause since this helps with treating the seizures.
Tests often include blood tests, X-rays, and MRI and a spinal tap.
@@SEVNeurology we took her to the vet they said they cant find anything wrong with her. I watched dr pol. A dog had 1 on there. Can they be caused by dehydration?
Glad to hear that they couldn’t find anything wrong. With seizures, many times dogs are completely normal between seizures.
What tests were run?
Where are you located?

When my senior dog had a seizure for the first time I thought she was dying. I held her and cried my eyes out. Luckily she survived it and is on seizure medication now and hasn’t had anymore since. Scariest moment of my life.
My senior guy just had his first seizure tonight.. scariest thing ever.. seeing the vet Monday... but yes I felt the same way.. I can't even sleep I just can't stop worring and watching him
@@devincarter8659 I just had to put down my childhood dog because of his seizure he suffered rescued him and he lived with us for 15 years it’s rough
@@jakeslade8518 I'm so sorry to hear that.. mine saw the vet today they put him on Kepra 3 times a day, hes has had small seizure now every morning since the first one Saturday. They say being hes 11 and older and his blood work looked good its more likely a brain tumor.. and to just see how the meds work and let him continue out his life as normal ... it heartbreaking💔 i just don't want him to suffer.. I took him to a 24/7 emergency hospital today bc I couldn't get a regular vet appointment till Friday, but there was so many young dogs there with different types of cancer . One just had his spleen out due to cancer, another only 6 years old had bone cancer, the sad part is alot of people cant afford the treatments. Its so sad.. It cost me 800 just for them to take a blood test, start his first dose of meds thru IV, a 10 day supply of meds, and a nail trim.. They at first wanted too keep him overnight for observation, that was a little over 3 grand.. they told me that I wanted to cry bc I cant afford 3 grand , and I told them that but they did work with me and got me to a price I could afford.. my heart literally hurts.. I love my boy hes a good buddy my best friend.. 🐶
@@devincarter8659 Same thing with my dog Shiva. She's 16 in a couple months. She's had vestibular disease for a couple years now. I'm pretty sure her case is caused by a tumor. Tonight Shiva had a seizure for the first time. Froze up mid walk and bonked her face on the side of my bed before I caught her. Her face was twitching side to side while the rest of her body was stiff as a board. I'm going call the doc in the morning. I'm fairly sure she will say Shiva has a brain tumor. But at 16 Shiva probably wouldn't survive surgery even if that was an option. So I'm guessing we'll get some seizure meds and we'll hope for the best. In the meantime I'm doing the same as you did. I have the dog laid down next to me in bed watching her. What else can you do?
@@devincarter8659 This just happened to us on Monday night. Our senior dog had her first seizure ever and we brought her to the overnight emergency vet. We were terrified. Every night since I have been waking up to check on her. Did they put your dog on seizure medication?
1. Dont hold them down.
2. Dont cry, be calm
I had a dog that had seizures because of brain cancer, her last seizure was 48 minutes long, that's the night we put her down.
Firewolf 40 I'm so sorry. I hope she is in peace now. That breaks my heart.
Firewolf 40 Thank you. Sorry to hear.
Sorry for your loss
Firewolf 40 so sorry to hear that
Why do you put her down? What was her life expectancy at that time?
That first one actually had me in tears, the seizure was horrible, but the dogs wailing was....haunting, it was scared and frightened.
My dog started to crawl clumsily. Then his legs stiffened and expression froze. I hope he doesn't get any worse but I will keep an eye on it. I am stressed! 😩

@@YautjaSpacePirate is he fine
This was a long time ago, but in case anybody else sees this: dogs are not conscious during these moments and are not afraid. The vocalisations are just caused by the spasms of muscles in the throat.
Dogs might be disorientated or sore after a seizure, but they're not in pain while it's happening because they're not aware. They can't choke on their tongue, so don't put your hand near their mouth. Don't try to hold them down (you can put your hand or a pillow under their head if they are at risk of injuring it). Just keep yourself, any other animals or people nearby and the dog safe.
The best thing you can do is film the seizure, time it, and take them to the vet to try to figure out what's going on -- it's only an emergency if the seizure continues for more than 3-4 minutes, if they're having seizures back-to-back, or if you think that they may have ingested a toxin such as snail bait or rat poison. Obviously a seizure that occurs without obvious cause (such as pre-existing epilepsy) should be investigated, but try not to panic. Full body seizures look horrible, but there's typically no immediate danger.
Other types of seizures include absences (dogs are not aware and may stare into the distance for a while before seemingly acting normally again) and partials (dogs may be aware and it can just be uncontrolled blinking or twitching). Not all look this violent. The dog may simply stiffen and twitch. You should record any seizure activity and make a vet appointment.
I experienced seizures with my last dog. Although the vet said be careful if close because she can inadvertently bite, I stayed close to her every time and pet her during and comforted her afterward. Don't let your pet go through this alone. Can you imagine going through that and waking up without anyone near you? Stay close and comfort your pet through something like this. It's traumatic for everyone.
Yeah, its hard to watch. Im not ready for the day my dog passes, I wont know what to feel. But at least I will be here for his whole life
This is true my dog bit the DVD play and pulled it from the wall.
Yes for sure. I’m seeing a lot of comments in these types of videos saying something like “HELP IT,” or “DONG JUST STAND THERE AND RECORD” when in reality animals, especially cats, are incredibly dangerous during seizures. There’s nothing you can do other than contact a vet afterwords.
My dog has the first type of seizures, plus more frequently, tremors. I hold him through them all.
Yes it sure is my dog just started having them and it affects all my other animals when this happens 😢
It breaks my heart in a million pieces when I write this comment. My German Shepherd, Daisy,8 years is getting multiple seizures a day. We tried every medication possible. She has not been eating past 2 weeks, just vomiting and not being able to pee. I wish her a pain free departure. Life would never be the same.
Edit : RIP DAISY (14th aug 2012- 5th dec 2020). We all miss you and I hope you’re in a better world now..😔❤️
Im very, very sorry to hear this.
Having a son with epilepsy and seeing my little dog have 3 seizures one after the other broke my heart.
@@normabermudez155 I will pray that your baby gets well soon..❤️

@@fischy947 wish your baby a speedy recovery.
When your dog is having a seizure you need to be as calm as possible. They react to the stress at that moment and this can bring another seizure.
I can imagine what is the horror watching your dog like this but remember that by being calm you actually help them to get out from that state faster.
First time it happenned I was sooo emotional cause i didnt know. Last night Beau had another and I was calm and after 3mins max it was over

Shoot. I cried so much and I couldn’t stop freaking out. My dog was only 2 years old and I’ve never owned a dog before so I didn’t know how to react. I’ll keep that in mind just in case.
I was holding my dog and he went limp and I set him down freaking out and crying. I went and got my grandpa and he was okay after that. He had another two before he passed in his sleep. I've never heard my Nana cry so hard in my life. I was completely heart broken. Rest In Peace Mikey. I miss you and Molly. 🖤

I have a dog named Molly and she started to get seizures yesterday. I'm scared fpr her now.
I don't know how accurate this is, but anytime my little dog has a seizure, he seems to come out of it quicker if I hold him, talk to him and love him.
Holding, talking and loving makes everything better. 100%.
Ever since my other dog passed away our dog seems like he is dreaming a nice dream yapping and running then it goes all wrong he stiffens up almost like a sideways "C" then screams like he is so scared
And his legs are all stiff. We talk to him and tell him he us ok mommy and daddy are here. When we stand him upright while saying this he seems to come out of it. It scares us really bad but wen try to stay calm and tell him he is mommy's good boy while petting him. We are not worried he will bite us as he has never done that. This only started after he saw his mate die.
Nasty
I had the same experience with my pup. If I held her tight, often the seizure would not even progress to a full one, or she would come out of it quicker.
my dog had a seizure about two days ago. She was near the end of her life and had fluid in her lungs. It looked like this and broke my heart to watch. She's now in a better place :c RIP Maddie.
im so sorry
NO :cccccc. *waaaaaAaaaa*
@@iifr4n816 It was hard to watch her walk around to find a place to die and the seizure was the thing that broke my heart the most. I actually had a dream the night she died. I was on a train and exited at a station. I saw her wander over to me and I knew that she was leaving. I distinctly remember saying "No Maddie." I haven't been able to have a dream about her since, no matter how hard I want to.
Mad Mike sorry 😭 i didnt read your second comment because it seemed more heartbreaking
rest in peace Maddie. shes in a better place
My dog had one today, we were in the park and it was the first time that it happens! I couldn’t describe the pain and panic I’ve felt in that moment!
Mine had his first today.. I understand
Very scary
My dog was sleeping and then she randomly started shaking and her eyes kind of rolled back and all I saw the white in her eyes. She’s being held in my lap rn but she seems ok but im scared to sleep now because i dont want her to have another one and im not awake to check on her.
@@rantsupreme2670 the same exact thing is happening to me rn

Thank you for showing the seizure; it’s been very helpful. God Bless 💞
As I can remember, even my dog had seizure. It happened in December of the last year. A (probably) week earlier, my dog began to have problems with peeing. He also almost wasn't able to walk, he didn't want to just make a few steps. Usually, there were a lots of urine puddles all over the flat. It felt really terrible to only see it. He was in huge pain. As the days went by, my dad got an idea to take him to veterinary. That evening, we were siting in waiting room. My dog was in front of my eyes and connected to the drip. Suddenly, he got a seizure. It was pretty terrifying and very emotional experience to me. Then on January 19th this year, my dog passed away in consulting room. What was actually the worst and best on his death? The worst was, that I was there with him and saw my dog dying. The best on his death was, that he finnaly feel anything. No pain, just nothing.
Rest In Peace, Matthew. We all miss you. 🥺🥺🥺 (January 31th 2008 - January 19th 2021)
Seizures are a perplexing disorder. Brain damage causes seizures or seizures cause brain damage? A diagnoses can cost you thousands and are not definitive. Treatment is also a "best guess."
I'm very thankful that my dog's seizures are rather mild and she can usually continue to stand through them. It is always heartbreaking to watch her. I hope she is able to live happily with her condition.
Any updates on this?
@@nneoma6106 mine had 4 in two weeks. I’ve begged vets and animal aid places for help and all I got was you should euthanize or surrender him. Vets here only care about the $. I don’t have money right now so they won’t see him.
Half these comments saying "dont get upset" "dont cry" well, how are they supposed to feel when someone they love are in this state of being??
😭💔
My dog has had multiple seizures, and for the first ones I cried. But after awhile it’s sad, but I don’t cry.
But yeah, I thought the same thing
Bruh they just groovin
_it's not that we think it'll help?? it's the fact that it's stressful to watch???_
If I can do it others can do it as well
My baby dog was having a seizure at this very moment.. it's really heart breaking to see them suffering. But as i watch plenty of advice about dogs having seizure i try to stay calm and wait for them to be okay.
i massage my dog during seizures but I know he is safe. Be cautious. At the very least TALK soothingly to your pet. They can hear you and just the sound of your voice reassuring them can help them through it.
To all of those experiencing this it is beyond terrifying and truly so disturbing but do your best to hold their heads and support them ( unlike this last video) so they do not hurt themselves further. Keep them calm and stay calm. They typically only last a few minutes. Neurologists can prescribe medication and they are lifesaving. My toy poodle Brutus was on Levacetam for many years and lived a perfectly happy healthy life.
Completely agree. It is hard to watch
Omg the last video was awful to watch how can they stand there and film their dog but not sit next to the dog and talk calmly to the dog to reassure it. My dog has had seizures since he fell down the stairs in 2019 and had thousands of pounds worth of tests and is now on the same meds as your dog and he lives a full active life. When he fits I make sure he can't hurt himself and i just stroke him and tell him he's a good boy and wait for him to come out of it, it takes about 20mins from start to finish then I give him a doggy biscuit just so he's got something to eat for energy. Good luck to you and your dog.
@@melaniehewitt3899 I agree with you that you should be speaking to them and comforting them, but my vet asked us to record seizures I beleive to see what it looks like, but that was asked for in the early days of his seizures
My god that was so heartbreaking ❤️

❤❤❤✋
Yeah❤
This happened to my grandparents dog yesterday but she is ok now
@Lamont Rollo, what is your problem?
It’s so heartbreaking to have a pet go through seizures. You can’t do anything but wait till they’re over.... I had to put my sweet big baby down Monday because of it. His seizures got out of control and I just couldn’t have him go through that quality of life anymore. It’s a very hard and personal decision but if your dog gets worse, I just didn’t see any other options that I didn’t take.
I’m in the same position and I love my little guy he is only 3 years old but I don’t want him to have a bad quality of life. He has had about 7 seizures in the past 2 days but they are very minor I took him to vet and now he is on medication I pray he gets better because I love him so much and he is such a big part of my life. I watch these videos and read the comments and it somehow brings be comfort knowing I’m not the only one going through this.

My dog also has epilepsy. She's on medication but last time she had a cluster it was 10 seizures/hour. At least she is stable now. I learned how to not panic and just put her somewhere dark and calm until she calms down. She's so strong.

Honestly, this is a very important resource
DON‘T HOLD THEM STILL WHEN THEY ARE HAVING A SEIZURE. HOLDING THEN DOWN WILL ONLY MAKE IT WORSE.
No it’s better cause if you don’t they can just fling there self into an object and injure themselves badly and it can keep people and animals from hitting things with there head and it protects them from falling objects if they hit a table
@@ZayZay__ just move the objects, holding the dog will only hurt them more.

I work with dogs and experienced one having a seizure for the first time. Trying to research more so I can be better at handling those situations (tho I think I handled myself well by staying calm, getting help, and comforting him once he settled back to normal)
yalls need to calm down quit freaking out its going to make her have more and more sezuries these are eliptical sezuries which means the body moves at the same time why because the brain is getting signals rappidly
crazy boii98 Thanks. You are correct that it is important to try to stay calm. That said, seizures can be scary for pet parents.
I Had a Seizure before.Trust me it was weird I will tell you what I saw this happened like 2 years ago.I saw like a bit of a people raceing thing,It was weird I started with one of my friends,you can find her on TH-cam,She’s a Minecraft person,She’s reinunicorn927.But I will catch on to what I saw.they went in a tiny circle ⭕️ 👩,She was slow at first.The more you went around the circle she/he would get faster,Plus when they went around the circle they would get bigger.So I was a starter,Mine was small.I looked at the others,I felt dizzy.Everything was getting blurry.
That’s all I remember!
Your right she needs to clam down pets senses there owner so by her acting up 8t only makes him worse need to relax and try to hold i find out holding my dog and taking to him softly helps cut the seizure time to half they love us they depend on us they trust us so there power comes from the way we act

I lost my bichon a couple weeks ago to seizures and I still can't get over it.

I thought this video was going to show people how to handle a dog in a seizure. The lady did well with the first dog. I had a beagle who had seizures. You don't stand across the room crying, while your dog is fighting a frickin' seizure! You go to your dog, support him, and make sure his limbs are not in a position in which they could be broken or dislocated. I got my dog on his side and gently held him next to my body if I could safely get him in that position. Other times, when I caught him at the beginning and he was in a sit, I sat behind him, straddling him and held him up so that he wouldn't fall and get his legs into a compromising position. Eventually, I learned to predict seizures and I was able to lessen the severity and sometimes prevent them all together by going to his side, holding him, calming him, and projecting love and compassion.
My dog Rocky passed away 19th January 2022, he was just 7 years old, wish you didn't had an so early departure from us, hope good will look after you and born among us again, love you so much

Thank you for caring. I hope your boy gets better. 🙏
Wow as I watch this I am reminded of my dog she died about two months ago because she had about 9 or 10 seizures in our home before we could take her to the vet and the seizure caused total paralysis in my dog she became imobile and weak and when we took her to the emergency clinic they did all they could to keep her alive but she had more seizure which caused brain damage and caused her to die and as she was having her first few seizures I did not know how to react and I held back my tears because I thought I was staying strong for my family but when i felt that she had no heartbeat the next day after they called us to view the body i just broke down. I just want to say to everyone who has experienced this and those who are still experiencing this stay strong I know how it feels and to those who lost their bestfriends due to seizures like me I send my love.

i so love dogs, these breaks my heart
Vet tech here. Despite all of your instincts, keep your hands away. I've been bitten multiple times before by dogs during seizures. Not there fault. They can hurt you and themselves. Only thing you can do is make sure there's nothing around them they can hurt themselves on. If you have to move them, stay away from the mouth.
My 10 year old boxer is going thru this right now. I feel your pain. Stay calm..
My dog just had 1, first time, (4/27/23) around age 13, and she looked a lot like these dogs.
Thanks to all for your advice. Hopefully no next time.
When my dog first had siezures she had about 17 in 24 hours. Very similar to the second dog. It was a bit of a balancing act with her medication dosage and she had a second seizure cluster 4 months after but now her dosage is sorted she rarely has seizures at all (I believe her last one was half a year ago) and has scans yearly to check the dosage/effect on her liver. Best wishes to the owners of those dogs though. It's never easy seeing them go through that.
For the second one you need to stay calm and go to the dog's side. Make sure if they vomit they don't aspirate or that they don't move into a position they can hurt themselves in. When a dog comes out of an episode they can be very confused and scared and need a lot of reassurance.
My dog is very disoriented after, even growls at me. I just let him go somewhere dark and quiet. I don’t try to go near him, I let him come to me.
Thank God for the Internet and these videos . I just encountered the first seizure of a stray dog ( that I take care till I find her owner ) , in my entire life! I did not know what to do and I was not sure how to approach , but I read some of info on the Internet saw these type of videos and I calmed down a bit. She also had urination ( another sign of having a seizure ) .She is also in time of mating , if I am writing this correctly .
The first one was heart warming because she rubbed the dog while it was happening. The second because everyone was crying but really because the kid depended so much on the mom who kept everything under control by staying calm. Also how the kid asked should I throw on pajamas or real clothes and she’s like No I just washed your clothes put on real clothes. All the love in the air was adorable 🥰
This is so incredibly heartbreaking!
After a years of experience with a dog with seizures the best thing to do is to comfort them during and after, and My family has realized hand feeding them their food and keeping a fan on them when they sleep are some of the best ways to prevent them.
I'm going through the same thing right now I have a collie with epilepsy, those moments when they have fits they feel like an eternity.
I use cold compresses to reduce the fit time and reduce post ictus state, also combat hyperthermia which is the greatest threat. That buys enough time to take him to the vet.
I have been watching a lots of videos from youtube to help my dog... she's was shaking , trembling from morning she looks tired her mouth was super dry...we had given her 3 drip but it was useless...and she just pass away now...it's so sad that I won't be able to see her again...call her again but this is how life goes on we will meet again in heaven

Never do what those people did in that last one, always be at its side to know it can relax, and know you are there for it, also, I had a vet tell me it’s scarier for people watching than the people having
What are you talking about? That's EXACTLY what you do. The dog is disoriented and terrified in that state, touching them or holding them down makes it worse and CAN injure them. Do NOT touch them, there's nothing you can do to stop it, so stand back and let them get through it. Comfort them after the fact, not during. Please do not tell people false information that can potentially injure their dog. Best not to speak about things you don't know in the first place.
@@darkwolf2622 are you a vet cause my dog had a seizure 10 mins a go .
My dog had one due to low blood sugar, when this happens the best thing to do is keep them somewhere where they cannot hurt themselves, and leave them alone, give them space, and it’s also a good thing to record so you can show your dog’s vet the video so they can understand what type of seizure it was and the duration
Well I'm glad these people are keeping calm and trying to help the dog out. Wow
I think putting a hand on the dog and projecting calmness and talking to them quietly so they know they are not alone in case they can recognize anything is a good thing. Holding them hard to restrain their motions is not what I would do but I would make sure that the dog does not hurt itself.
my puppy had multiple seizures in the process of him going through parvo, that was the most heartbreaking thing ever, I immediately injected him with IV fluid consisting Dextrose, as his seizures were the result of him being Hypoglycemic, rushed to the vet n he's fine. touchwood ❤️
This just happened to my senior companion for the first time a few minutes ago. I didn't think she would survive it, being so violent.
Breaks my heart.
2 days ago I lost my senior boston terrier. 13.5 years. Never issues and woke me up at 3 in the morning having a seizure. His were longer and much more violent than the video. He got up in panic between them and ran around aimlessly. I couldnt stop him. He had about 4 more seizures until we could get to a vet. We knew he was gone. After the last seizure he kept doing the same thing over and over. Kicking his back legs and turn to one side. He was like a broken computer at the end. We were fortunate enough to hold our beloved boy while he was put down.
My little girl has been having seizures on and off for the last 3 years. Our vet told us to put an ice pack on her stomach, massage pressure points behind her ears and give her a tsp of honey. I always comfort her,pet her and talk to her throughout the seizure and thankfully she’s not had one that’s lasted longer than 5 minutes. It’s a truly heartbreaking situation but just be as calm as possible and of course it’s good to have a second person to bring the ice pack and honey while you are massaging her pressure points.
What honey and ice do for them.
@@elsabellita9702 I’m not sure, the vet told us to do this…. We do it, it’s better than doing nothing 😭
But massaging pressure points I feel really does help
Last night i was laying on the couch with my dog Griffin. He started shaking and crying so i woke my dad up then Griffin pooped and he was drooling everywhere. He started breathing slow and we let him be. A few minutes later we checked on him and he was not breathing. I was so sad today and i will never forget about him. My dad buried him today in the yard. I miss him so much already he was such a good dog.
Rip
I’m so sorry you went through that i feel bad for you it’s a shame when you lose things that you love it’s heartbreaking to hear that from you so sorry
I’m so glad I seen this comment about a year and a half ago I had a puppy named sarge 11 week old Saint Bernard I thought someone poisoned him but seeing these comments it seems like he had a seizure and kind of puts me at ease
my dog is doing this right now, he’s just walking around without corridation. i’ve accepted that he is going to die for a while now. he’s a good boy. i will never forget him
Majorelementgaming 121 that’s so sad I’m so sorry your dog has died
Poor baby omg sad 😥 thanks for the video and information because I never even thought what if my dogs ever had a seizure ! Helps lots to know what to do
Had a dog who in the later years of his life would have seizures. It was the scariest thing for me to witness he would fall to his side and twitch violently and would pee himself. I can't imagine the pain and fear he would have. My dad would make everyone leave the room when our dog was having a seizure and he would stay with him to comfort him. After the seizure they used to go outside. Sadly after my parents split and we lost our house we had to put our dogs in the shelter. I don't know what happened to him or my other dog, but I miss them so much. I hope that my old timer was put to sleep peacefully
My 11 year old dog had two seizures about 4 days apart. She passed after then second seizure. Its a horrible experience for the owner. There is no way to comfort your dog during a seizure.
Of course after the first seizure I was there to comfort her. For about 5 minutes she was disoriented and searching rooms in the house. 10 minutes later she was fine, and told me that she wanted her afternoon meal.
What I find confounding is possible seizures that she had that I did not witness. I could have been running errands or simply in a different room.
HOW TF YOU EXPECT SOMEONE TO NOT CRY, WHEN SOMEONE YOU LOVE IS SUFFERING.
Exactly
Dogs pick up on your energy, if you panic it’s just gonna make the dog freak out more
What we're saying is keep calm to help the dog! You don't want your dog to keep on having seizures when you could've avoided it just by keeping calm. Hold back your damn tears even if you're a damn crybaby
well your dog isn't suffering cause its unconscious so it doesn't feel anything
True but you have to try your best not to, as it will make the situation worse.
My little Maltese mixed started having seizures a couple of days ago. And when we got her to the vet, they said she had similar symptoms to ingesting mushrooms. We're currently treating her and she'll have seizures every hour or so. And I'm really worried that it might never end.
2 of my dogs suffered from seizures for a few months. Seizure meds helped a little but the seizures resurfaces a few months later. They died eventually from the seizures. Those were rough and heartbreaking times.
Poor dogs man, I love animals. I see how they feels pain.
I feel so bad for everyone ESPECIALLY the poor dog at 2:14. Its hard to watch someone or something you loved go through that and theres nothing you can do to help them.
My senior dog he’s age 16 years old ,he had a seizure at daycare, I got a phone call and text message from his daycare that he had a seizure and I was a breaking down crying. I was in complete shock and I raced to the daycare to ask more questions about what happened. The daycare wouldn’t let me leave until I calmed down from crying so much. I was working a shift when I found out , I got a voicemail from the daycare about what happened and if I wasn’t working that time, I would of definitely went and got him right away.
He was out for a month due to a drug overdose and was in the hospital for 3 days. I kept him home for safety reasons and to get an approval from his vet, the vet said he can go back and it’s safe. That 1st day back at daycare. He had the seizure. He’s fine now and hasn’t had another seizure since but I am still scared for that.
My boxer started having them after 10 years , that's honestly the saddest things to see. You feel so helpless , you just have to protect them from objects around them and wait there until it's over, there is absolutely nothing you can do to help. Brakes my heart ;'(
I just lost my beloved pup today. His first and last seizure was like that of the first dog in the video. I've considered him as my best friend since I just lost my mom to Covid. I guess I don't know how to process grief anymore. I am beyond sad at this point.
Hey man keep your head up! I’m going through the same thing I lost my grandmother to Covid last year and it was devastating she was like my mom and now my beloved 3 year pitbull is having seizures he is the best little guy ever I love him so much it hurts me seeing him go through this but I pray he recovers and can live a long life. I don’t want to put him down 😕
Hey man! I lost my mom too, and now my puppy has been have seizure since two weeks. Trust the process man
@@entaagalliu8745 thank you man I’m sorry about your mom and your pup but all we can do is remain strong and positive! Much love man thank god my dog seems to be doing better and he is not on the decline I’m at work rn but super excited to go home to see him right now
this happened my dog last week, she died and I can't forget the image of her while struggling to survive. I love you Miho. I hope I'll see you soon
My little guy had to be put down because he had an hour long seizure. He was only 8. I am so heartbroken. I cant sleep or eat right. Im depressed and feel really empty inside. It was so sudden. What a powerful bond dogs and humans have. Very special. Rip marco.
Any seizure lasting more than 5 minutes is status epilepticus and it is life threatening. They need to go to the ER in that state.
Poor little guy I hope he’s ok 🥺🥺🥺🥺 bless you little doggy 🥰🥰🥰
One of our dogs, named Rusty, once had a seizure, but it was less like a genuine seizure, and more along the lines of him just "seizing up".
No spazing.
No pained howls.
None of that.
It was still scary though.
Same as what my dog is having. I’m so so glad his aren’t like this. And I so pray to God they never will be. It was so scary just seeing my doggo seize and his eyes get big and disoriented :( I never realized how horribly awful they are to witness.
@@angelabaird7135 did yall ever figure out how to treat this?
and did it get better?
How do you deal with a dog to keep it safe and fine after its seizure?
The S.S.G. Most seizures are self limiting like the ones seen here. Make sure the pet isn’t near a hazard such as a pool or stairs. If seizures last more than 3 minutes or if there are multiple in one day, take them to the emergency vet or neurologist right away.
@@SEVNeurology thanks I appreciate it
Stay with the dog until it’s over and keep the dog in your sight and probably take it to the vet
unfortunately my little baby husky puppy had to get put down due to seizures and she had a brain disorder
Put him sleep
Reading these comments and watching these videos made me bawl my eyes out.
Oh no!!! The doggie is all shaken up!!!
I was in my kitchen/living room, and was sitting close to my dog, then he started like having a small tick, i get kind of scared and pet him, then he stops.
Never felt so worried in my life.
My dog recently had seven cluster seizures in one night. She lived and seems to be doing better. Hopefully it lasts 🤞
What kind of dog and how old is she? If she had a cluster of seizures, it is typically recommended to see a vet, look for the cause of the seizures and start medications.
My dog had a fit like seizure the other day due to to much heat
The crying broke my heart💔 such a painful thing to watch. My mom has seizures so I know the pain of watching a loved one go through it. I came here making sure my dog isn’t epileptic as well bc she’s been jolting and shaking and I almost started crying because it already enough my mom deals with it. I don’t want to see it in my dog too😞💔
My Gracie had a seizure last night and it was her 11th birthday. Very scary and she's going to the Vet today.
I pray she gets better
Damnit, I only wanted to see how this looks like to be prepared if this'll ever happen to me, but now... I won't ever forget this. 😢
Yes, I'm extremely traumatized.
I woke up this morning at around 7:20AM and my dog Bailey was on the floor of my room having a seizure. I was so dazed and confused that I didn’t know he was having one for a whole minute but I tried to keep him on his side. It was heartbreaking to see him running in circles in an unbalanced fashion the house crying afterwards. Been with him the whole day and when things seemed to get better after a few hours I let him out in the backyard and he had another seizure. This time foaming and running away from me before collapsing. I don’t know if anyone will see this but if you do I would appreciate any prayers for him.
Edit: After over a day and 15 seizures later our family was unable to pay for further medical treatment and euthanized him. Rest easy Bailey.
my baby had a seizure aswell and i’m too scared to even go to sleep..
@@loserisaluvrr I’m very sorry to hear that. Make sure to spend a lot of time with your dog and if he has had more than one seizure try to get someone to help you watch him so you can get some rest.
It's a horrible thing to witness. You just have to talk them through it and try to comfort them. I hate it and it's so hard to see a wonderful and gentle dog go through something so violent. 😢
My Nan's dog that lived in my house had just recently passed away from seizure like 2 days ago. It was an Australian Cattle Dog (a Blue Heeler to be exact), but I remember when he was still alive and he (along with my Nan) had moved into my house last year back in 30th of July (My Nan had dementia and is in the hospital now), I was not only afraid of that dog, because he would bite me uncontrollaby, but I grew to hate him, due to his constent barking (It's a long story), especially when it sounded aggressive. But then on the 17th of June, I didn't know that the dog had any seizures, until my mom told me later that night. The dog must've licked bug spray by accident while I was giving him doggy treats (I didn't poison him, but I thought there was a fly buzzing around). The last time I saw him, he was laying on the floor at the kitchen before I went into the bathroom to take a dump and clean my teeth. So my parents took him to the vet (I didn't go, and neither did my brothers). I don't know how old that dog was exactly, but I'm guessing either 11 or 12? But since then, I started to feel depreesed with grief.
We live this life, our fur baby lives this existence... after many years and tears... check your flea and tick meds. My heart goes out to you, it has been a long journey
I can't help crying. It feels so powerless to see her moving without any control. Poor lady I feel her pain.
You have to comfort them as you would a human. You have to let them own you are there.
